Determinants of chinese provincial governments’ responses to the 2018 vaccine scandal: policy orientation and neighbor effect
/ Tai, Yuehong Cassandra
Tai, Yuehong Cassandra
Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract
Scholars who study governance in authoritarian countries have long highlighted the importance of fiscal capacity and pressure from the central government in determining the responsiveness and policy changes of subnational governments. However, policy orientation is also important in shaping how subnational governments react to a crisis. Using provincial governments’ responses during the 2018 Chinese vaccine scandal, I find strong evidence that an emphasis on public health, as well as early responses by neighboring provinces, increased the likelihood of a quick response. Moreover, issue salience minimized the direct effect of pressure from the national government. An additional paired case study of the provinces of Hubei and Hunan shows that the importance accorded by the provincial government to public health policy was implemented at the sub-provincial level through China’s one-level-down cadre management system; it also may explain Hubei’s delay in responding to COVID-19 at an early stage.

Sexual and gender-based violence in the Democratic Republic of Congo
/ Sadie, Yolanda
Sadie, Yolanda
Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract
Commitment by the government of the Democratic Republic of Congo to addressing sexual and gender-based violence (SGBV) in the country is reflected in a number of international commitments and national strategies. This article traces the (slow) progress in addressing some of the most important issues relating to SGBV to which the government has committed itself. It argues that unless the underlying gender norms and unequal power relations that form the basis of gender violence, discrimination and inequality in Congolese society are addressed, SGBV will persist.

Transnational origin of a local response to HIV/AIDS in Henan p
/ Rollet, Vincent
Rollet, Vincent
Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication
2009.
Summary/Abstract
For several years now, at a time when Henan remains one of the areas of China most heavily affected by the HIV/AIDS virus, peasants in several of the worst affected villages have supplemented the official policies and strategic approaches to deal with its spread by progressively mobilising and organising their own local measures to deal with the social challenges that AIDS imposes on rural communities. This article is particularly concerned with the transnational origin behind this local mobilisation.
